"Exists in Your Account" - using the SG add-on.

Closed

Hello everyone!

I'm desperately trying to enter giveaways for War of the Roses - but since I've played the F2P version, the website keeps telling me "Exists in Your Account".

I've installed the SG add-on and set it filter out this specific game after searching this forum for a solution, but it still shows up when I synch my account. Is it how it's supposed to be or am I using it wrong?

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Try syncing it again. It should have disappeared when you resynced it after the game leaves your library.

It won't disappear, if you want the game you must buy it..

your best bet is to wait 2 weeks until you don't have any playing time on it and then you can enter them.

The SG add-on filter makes it disappear from the giveaways that you see. It doesn't make it disappear from the list of your owned games.

Ah that's what I suspected. Damn.

So I will have to wait 2 weeks indeed. Thanks for the info!

I'll be perfectly honest with you: it's not like My Favorite Game Ever nor is the F2P preventing me from enjoying the core of the game.

My reasons for wanting it are more "sentimental" if you will.
My boyfriend has the full version (he bought it during a sale that I missed) and since we always play games together I tried the F2P and he was really excited about helping me build my own class and pick matching crests and stuff (we're both history nerds) - which I can't do without the full version.

The only thing that troubles me is that I'll have to stop playing for at least 2 weeks (if I'm super lucky!) because bludgeoning strangers to death with my partner does wonder for my anxiety issues and also constitutes the perfect romantic evening :P

But I'm a big girl, I'll live. Maybe I'll just stick to the F2P version, I'm not sure yet.

You should have a little green square on the top-right corner of your steam client.

Ingenious move. Shows great understanding of the average male Steamgifts user.

I had the intention to give the game from the beginning if I got a good answer, and I thought it was. I'll try to add her again to send her all my gifts. Even the ones I'm making giveaways for.
